MY VISIT TO NAINITAL-SAMTSE

I woke up to see beautiful sunrise, the warmth it radiated as i soaked myself in it with a cup of tea. Birds chriping in the distance, i was lost and mesmerised in the beauty of the place, serene and tranquality. It was such a wonderful day to begin with.

Nainital is located in Samtse dzongkhag of Bhutan. Since it is located in the southern part of the country, you hardly see mountains around which is the best part, for me. Bhutan being a landlock country, very few places have plains and samtse in one of them.
 
So i visited to this place after i came back from my college recently. I have heard about this place alot from my friend which made me very excited and tempted to explore the beauty of Nainital. So i packed my bags and set my journey towards Nainital. Its about two and a half hours of journey from my place(not so far i know) and i was told its far from the town.

The people out there was very kind and welcoming. My three days stay there was very fun and interesting. I got to visit many places.


Here are some of the pictures which were taken while wandering around the place.








This very picture shows the border area with India. The other side is filled with greeny of tea plantation. An amazing thing about the border area is, there is no walls built around but just a simple mark made on the stones to mark the territory and a dense jungle covering the border area.
